My wife is currently in rehab for alcohol, bulimia, and depression. She has been having problems for years and I finally told her if she doesn’t get help and stop, that I was going to get a divorce. She has now been there for 4 days and I still have no idea what’s going on? I know she’s in detox, but they haven’t told me how long she will be in there. Does anyone know how long someone should be in rehab with these problems? I think she should stay there for at least 90 days, but she seems to think she can get out in a couple weeks. ??????

we are newly married. I have been sober for a few months now and have been doing great but recently was sent e-mail from his ex. stating they had hung out, while I was away. He denies cheating but admits to hanging out. I can’t stop thinking about it.
In the e-mail, the ex. claimed to be sharing info.with me out of guilt and anger. She was very detailed in the e-mail.. (i.e. describing what he wore, the times and dates I called while in treatment) She included very uneccesary info. She also seemed to be insinuating that they had sex. She also went out of her way to msg. my best friend to include her in the drama.

Detoxification (detox) can be defined as a period of treatment where an individual is helped to overcome their physical dependence on a substance. Detox is intended to relieve the physical symptoms of withdrawal and helps prepare the patient for entry into a treatment program or rehab center. The ultimate goal of detox is to prepare the patient for long term sobriety and recovery.

Alcohol detox can cause a variety of physical symptoms and psychological ramifications. The process of alcohol detox can be traumatic and can trigger any number of side effects including tremors (the shakes), headaches, vomiting, perspiration, restlessness, loss of appetite and insomnia.

We often underestimate the health risks of alcohol abuse. Because it is a legal substance–and heavily promoted–we rarely put alcohol abuse into the same mental category as with drugs such as cocaine or heroin. Although you won’t ever go to jail for possession, the health risks are just as great if not greater, and few other drugs can match alcohol for the health risks associated with detox.
